The Molten Desert
Desert found to the east of the continent, separated from most of it by a mountain range.
The region has a strong connection to the Plane of Fire. The temperature strengthens the link, which then raises the temperature. This loop has been going on for centuries (and is the reason why the desert is not truly cold at night), and can go on for another millennium or two before the desert turns into a sea of molten glass.
Pocks of molten, bubbling glass can be found scattered throughout the desert. These are places where the dimensional membrane is even weaker than usual. Glasswyrms tend to spring forth from these pools.
Given the Terian affinity for fire, sand was sought after in massive quantities for glass construction. The discovery of Ignium in the mountains was an accidental consequence of the search for sand.
